Wait, as in it's a nice thought or actually a possibility? I did a double-take and scrambled for Otakon's site.

It would be awesome if it happened and I'd go to most of his stuff over the weekend (which would monkey wrench some cosplay plans); I just hope with as huge a guest as that would be the fans would realize this and give him proper respect instead of just "That guy did the Kenshin ending/Gundam Seed opening!!!". His shows are nearly always sold out in Japan from what I hear...

*laughs* So basically I'm reiterating from other threads about popular Japanese groups i.e. Dir en Grey. ^_^;

You mean they finally announced it? :D I knew rumors of it for quite some time, but now it's official? ^_____^ Ohhhh that makes me so happy. *TMR #1 fangirl*

I need to get back to working on my TMR costume now. *-* Squeaaaaak~!!

I think I am going to die! I saw that guy in concert in Japan and loved him! YEAH!

I so gotta make Otakon now!!!

Michi

05-21-2003, 08:22 AM

You saw him in concert, Carmila! Ohhh lucky! *-*

I will also be waiting in line forever. I seriously don't care what else is going on at Otakon.. I will be in any and every line relating to Takanori.. He's my very favorite non-English-speaking singer/performer. ^^ He'd have #1 in any language but Michael Jackon holds that place. ^^;

Carmila

05-21-2003, 10:24 AM

Yes, I did, and it cost my BF a bloody fortune! Plus we were out all night because the concert let out well after the last train came through.

Same here Michi. I will be standing in line right there with you!

Zelly

Wheeee...we'll all be line biznatches!!!! XD; I don't care if I'll be sitting in line all day....*_*

Note: I am not some crazed fangirl, but sure! I think we should all wait in line together. This way we can atleast entertain ourselves!

I always had a feeling Otakon X was going to rock so much that it would be criminal.

Now I know this con is going to kick all the ass in the world. If you ain't coming to Otakon you're going to miss it.

umm... being the n00b I am who exactlly is he ^_^; *backs away in fear* please don't hurt me

Michi

05-21-2003, 08:23 PM

Carmila ~ Haha, I'd be willing to spend all that for him. *-* But seeing him perform at Otakon will be pretty good for now. :3

Fist ~ He's a pop singer from Japan. He's known somewhat to anime fans because he did an ending theme for Rurouni Kenshin (Heart of Sword ~ Yoake Mae) and the opening for Gundam Seed (Invoke). ^_^ But I love him far beyond being an anime theme singer. o_o

Alright, I'll be honest with you, when I first saw this thread, I thought it was about someone cosplaying as TM Revolution! :thumbsup:

I can't believe it!! This is so cool!! I was already planning to go to Otakon, but now this is more fuel for the fire!! :bouncer: Hmmm....I know some people who weren't going to Otakon who are probably going to go now!!! *plots silently* :skidude2:

Michi

05-22-2003, 05:15 PM

Well I'm cosplaying him at Otakon. :D If that counts for anything. XD I already had it planned quite a long time ago... but I'm sure others will join in now, too. o.O

Hi everyone :

Just to formalize it : yes the Otakon website has been updated. It is completely OFFICIAL. T.M.Revolution WILL be at Otakon and he WILL be performing.

For those of you who were wondering about why the website wasn't updated : we have a regular policy of letting the Otakon mailing list members and the Otakon Webboard members know first, as a litte prize for being dedicated enough to watch us that closely. ;)

So yes. T.M.Revolution in his first ever US Appearance and performance.

*BIG GRIN*

And people were wondering if we were doing anything special for our tenth anniversary... ;)

I'm so there. I'll admit it. I'm a TMRev fan. ^^;;

Come on, the man basically reinvented J-Pop into something insanely enjoyable. I don't GIVE a crap what he looks like.

Michi

05-24-2003, 04:47 AM

Ahahahaha. I've noticed a lot of people here and on LJ beginning to admit their T.M.R fan-ness now that he's a guest. XD I LOVE IT.

What he looks like? He's sexy. :o He also looks like my step-cousin, which is how I discovered T.M.Revolution in the first place, three years ago (long story).

Rock on! He's the infamously super-secret Big Ass Guest we've been being teased with?
I win! I guessed right!
Indeed, he is a truely remarkable j-pop guy that even we j-rockers can love.
*is just very pleased and even more anticipating Ota now*

I'm going to miss out on so much at this con. ^_^; I'm serious about intending to be in any and every line relating to him *packs GBA and portable CD player* x.x *packs cards* Someone else tell me they're just as crazy (either in general, or for him). ;_; I wonder if I'll end up missing out on a cosplay gathering. "You need Michi? Um, she's in that corner over there.. No, the line hasn't started yet.. but she decided to wait early.. o_O"

*tackles Zelly-Daichan* Yaaaaay!

Michi's Otakon report:
I sat around in lots of lines, and saw T.M.Revolution. I dunno what the rest of the con was like. The end.
